Nurturing eccentric positions and spaces, my work favors uncertainty and public display. I'm particularly interested in themes concerning affect, including those at the crossroads of consciousness + social conditions, meta-physics + science, perceptual phenomena + stage/screen space. My video and public projects often enlist commercial, neglected, and civic spaces in efforts to contribute meaningfully to the cultural landscape. I'm a professor emeritus of art at the University of California Santa Barbara.
